ABSTRACT
Abstract COVID-19 arrived to Latin America early in March 2020. Currently, strategies are being developed in Colombia focusing on the quarantine and social and economic capital reactivation, whereby the expected results are not being obtained. In this article, we propose to review scientific evidence-based literature where information on the operation and adaptation of health systems, and social, economic and solidarity sectors of Colombia is presented. The purpose is to identify COVID-19 implications in the network that provides health services, quality of life and health-disease prognosis in the country, which is not prepared to face crises of social nature and of health systems, as well as the economic and solidarity impacts that are brought about by pandemics and crude episodes of disease.
RESUMEN
Resumen COVID-19 llegó a Latinoamérica a principios de marzo de 2020. Actualmente, en Colombia se desarrollan estrategias enfocadas en la cuarentena y la reactivación del capital social y económico, con las cuales no se están obteniendo los resultados esperados. En este artículo se propone revisar literatura basada en evidencia científica en la que se exponga información del funcionamiento y adaptación de los sistemas de salud, sectores sociales, económicos y solidarios de Colombia. El objetivo es identificar las implicaciones de COVID-19 en la red prestadora de servicios de salud, calidad de vida, pronóstico de salud-enfermedad en el país, el cual no está preparado para afrontar crisis de orden social, de sistemas de salud e impactos económicos y solidarios que conllevan las pandemias y episodios graves de enfermedad.
